Dick Clark's death will probably be on the front pages of newspapers across the country tomorrow, and will lead the evening news tonight. Public officials in New York (like public officials everywhere in America, for that matter) weighed in with statements.

At 4:29, Mayor Michael Bloomberg released a statement noting Clark's record of hosting New Year's Eve celebrations in Times Square, and also that "he seemed forever young."
